My Birthday Week Is Off To A Splendid Start And Here’s Why

So I turn 30 this Sunday. I am usually someone who loves their birthday but this one is a little unsettling. My 20s have treated me so well, I am not sure I am ready to kiss them goodbye. But alas, time keeps marching on and whether I am ready or not this 30th birthday is coming. So I might as well embrace it.

The week is off to a fantastic start! Yesterday my girlfriends from college took me out to brunch at this really cool restaurant called "Gather" in Boston.

They spoiled me with lots of bubbly, cupcakes and scratch tickets. And I won 25 dollars on one! I never win anything!

So perhaps this is my lucky week! I have a concert and a fun weekend with friends in Portland to look forward to. Maybe turning 30 won't be so bad. And I can always just tell people I'm turning 29 again. #denial
